Outline
• The challenge of working with National Labs
• The California battery ecosystem
• CalCharge: A public-private partnership to accelerate technology development
• CalCharge program areas and impact
• Process to work with Berkeley Lab
• Bay Area Battery Summit: Bringing together thought leaders in industry and academia
National Lab assets: People and equipment
How can industry to take advantage of these assets? Fast? 3
Critical Mass and Global Impact
• California has one the largest and most dynamic concentrations of the energy storage sector in the world
• With an outsized impact on industry and market development globally
• More than 120 energy storage companies are located in California
• But no “center of gravity”
